What our analysts say
Sally's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Emanuel Wilson (SEA RB), our RB73 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season vs CHI, projecting 0.5 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Sally wants fireworks, and 10.5 points below a typical starter isn't fireworks. The vs CHI draw matters here — home snaps against CHI shape how often he's asked to do something. 27% of managers already start him, and the depth-chart role behind that number looks stable. Sally keeps him at Mild until the usage says otherwise.
Tina's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Emanuel Wilson (SEA RB), our RB73 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season vs CHI, projecting 0.5 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Tina would rather take the cheaper, steadier option than 10.5 points of shortfall. 27% of managers already start him, and the depth-chart role behind that number looks stable. 0.5 points is roughly 95% short of the RB baseline, and I honestly rank on output, not name recognition. The Pepper Meter cools him to Mild, and that reading is doing its job.
